first time the new platform suggested by dean mc conn of riding the faculty and students instead of the usual rambling ar ticles satirizing college life in gen eral the burr gave a burlesque of the student body no organization or individual escaped the scathing fire of the new editorial board an editorial criticizing the cur rent issues ot the brown and white was the first article which met the eyes of the reader a double page entitled campus caustics was probably the most humorous article the board spared no one in its fire of good-natured criticism the various campus celebreties were presented in a new and inter esting light through the medium of an account telling of the adventures of a freshman making the rounds during rushing week the theme of the burr followed a plan suggested by dean mc conn as an attempt to revive and stimulate interest in the publica tion the dean advised in propos ing his plan that the burr should not hesitate to keep names out of the jokes and articles

mertens freshman engineer whose home town is arbury park n j the meeting took place sept 13 about a half hour after the first cup race which ended unsuccess fully for the englishman when sir thomas learned that his visitor was from new jersey he asked him how are the mos quitoes down there they used to tell me that there were no mosqui toes in new jersey but the largest that i have ever seen came from that state after he had inquired of mertens what his future plans were and mertens told him that he was en rolled as a lehigh student he said well that's all right but when i was your age i

to start the game and lehigh took the ball on a ser ies of rushes and a 25 yard pass from halstead to issel on hop kin's three-yard line where nora plunged off tackle for six points about four minutes had slipped away from the opening whistle to the time that ware missed the ex tra point after touchdown and it seemed as though hopkins was go ing to take the short end of a large score most of the 2,000 hopkins fans then visioned a humiliating defeat lehigh appeared to outclass the homewood eleven from all angles but such was not to be the case following the jay's customary plan the baltimorians settled down to a waiting game ware's fumble costly it was not long before a break came that placed the jays in a po sition to even the score after sev eral exchanges of kicks jack turn bull kicked to lehigh's 10 yard line where al ware let the ball slip through his hands and weitzel hopkin's right end pounced on the ball on the five yard line reynolds smashed the sweltering lehigh forward wall for a four yard gain turnbull easily skidded through for the touchdown his try for extra point was well on its way when manfred haas lehigh tackle got his hands on the ball sufficiently to cause it to ricochet to the side of the goal posts thus tying the score the quarter ended shortly after the two teams lined up for the kickoff following the exchange of goals ware kicked to bauer who momen tarily fumbled the ball but recov ered and clicked off six chalk marks before being downed the pigskin went to lehigh on downs two line plunges netted no perceptable gain and a is yard penalty on the next play ware tossed a long pass which was promptly intercepted by hu dert on his own 20 yard line turnbull lost two yards on a re covered fumble and reynolds made it four yards in red ink when tackl ed back of the line of scrimmage jack turnbull made a short kick to midfield where weitzel injured his ankle downing the ball and was forced to retire from the fray nora scores on run . the most spectacular run of le high's present season was made on the next play by tom nora who crashed through right tackle elud ed the secondary defense and then outran both his own interference and the opposing team for 55 yards and a score ware again missed the point after touchdown a rekick was necessary when the kickoff went out of bounds johns hopkins formed a flying wedge for the ball carrier only to have him downed in his tracks by an end who ducked the oncoming hoard and got his man another 15 yard pen alty and a recovered fumble by hopkins-put the ball nearly in mid field when the half ended ware again kicked to hopkins to open the last half of the game turnbull dashed off 10 yards for first down on the next play two line plunges failed to penetrate the brown and white line so turnbull kicked out of bounds on the 10 yard line the ball was given to ware for a run around left end which gained 32 yards by virtue of some excellent interference by his team mates nora called the next play to himself and added 26 yards more but lost 10 yards in penauy because of holding in the line turnbull took ware's kick back 12 yards and increased this five marks with a pass to right end this was followed by some loss of yardage kicks back and forth with ware holding a five yard advan tage on the exchanges and several unsuccessful line bucks by both teams interspersed with a penalty the quarter ended with the ball on the 28 yard line in hopkins posses sion score is tied the jays opened the final quarter with a pass that made the next play from the three yard line with four downs to take it over the third of these four tied the score at 12 all with no extra point material izing as the ball went wide of the uprights lehigh received the kickoff and started down the field sindel who continued on page four the irish challenger then re called the days of his youth and early struggles and his chief ambi tion to make his mother a swell and give her every possible luxury now that my mother has re ceived all those things i desired for her i am happy in the realization of my foremost ambition mertens was signalled out for the honor by virtue of being one of the

be properly received and handled while there upon his arrival at the chi psi lodge he was ushered in and in troduced to many of the supposed phi betes when asked how his scholarship was he replied that he didn't have any trying to express surprise instead of smiling his questioners advised him to become a good scholar as soon as possible and told him that he should study frosh aspires to join honorary fraternity visits chi psi's in vain english and theme writing or he would not have a chance to get into phi beta kappa the freshman then seemed to lose confidence in himself and asked questions concerning the home life of several of the phi betes two of them told him that they were going home for the weekend to exercise their ponies another men tioned that he had flown in his plane to lehigh on a visit and that he was going home in his privately chauffered packard tar still un suspicious the frosh decided to go home and study and promised to come to see the boys again as soon as the frosh returned he was deluged with questions con cerning the phi betes he exclaim ed they're a dandy bunch of fel lows and that's one of the most ritzy joints i've been in yet he continued and
